A couple of Nagios NEB plugin API questions

Hello,
I've read the "NEB Module API" document [1], and the nebstructs.h
header, but I'd like more details about the members of
nebstruct_notification_struct. The document shows the struct definition
with no comments, and no example, and there are no comments for the
individual members in the nebstructs.h header either.
Also, this article [2] suggests that you can pass configuration data to
your NEB module with this syntax:
broker_module=/usr/local/nagios/bin/testmodule.o
config_file=/usr/local/nagios/etc/testmodule.cfg
How does one access that configuration data from within the plugin? Via
a dedicated callback? By accessing some global data structure within the
Nagios core process that loads my module?
I thought I'd find this information in the PDF file, but "Appendix B:
Catalog of Global Nagios Data Structures" only says "TBA".
